I tried to create a new account and here is what I get: Linuxbox:/home/brent# smbpasswd -a schmity New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Failed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user schmity. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database ? Failed to modify password entry for user schmity Linuxbox:/home/brent#
Any Ideas? Thanks for the help.
